Which is your fav Ambient track of all times by AFX? \/\/ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Don't know the names. Perhaps the first track of SAW2 thats a gooden. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
my fav track is 11 from ABIII |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i like x'tal and pulsewidth, infact i love the whole of SAW 85-92, maybe my fave aphex release |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think the last track on 'Polygon Window' is pretty dope. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

SAWII cd1 trk 3 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"cliffs" (SAWII Disc I) "matchsticks" (SAWII Disc II) Xtal Heliosphan Next Heap With Goon Gumpas that track 11 from AB3 is good too, even though it's just the ambient backtrack from Garden of Limniri (caustic window) :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
there was that rumor of sawIII |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
curtains and track 6 from saw3 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you are all wrong ON from the same single - this track rules |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i like also track2 and 11, disc 2 (sawII) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ant the ambient track inside in ON the remixes |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'm speaking about ON (28 mix) the single track ON, is not ambient imo. it could be techno. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, ON is a good one, isn't it? :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and now we have most irritating mistake of the century : who told you that On is not ambient ? I could even say that Ae and their EP7 is an ambient album if tre track contains beat, and even distortion - who said its not ambient ? techno ? nah... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ON has an ambient melody in the background but it's mixed with techno beats. so it's not ambient. the pure ambient concept is totally another think. then you can continue to believe that ON or EP7 is ambient and for me it's the same. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ambient means "space" its not important if theres beat, or not if the track provides "space" - its ambient imo, of course |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i respect your point of view but i think it's not the same of richard james. in fact he titled saw II an abum full of tracks without beats and saw85-92 hadn't techno tracks inside too. if richard thought same of you probably he titled analogue bubblebath III, ventolin or joyrex ep selected ambient etc... or something similiar. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no , he just titled the album- we all know that titles are just titles, and to AFX the titles are nothing - just titles so even if album isnt called ambient it can be ambient - check biosphere |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so it's just a coincidence that saw85-92 and sawII has tracks without techno beats? i know that for afx titles aren't important, and he hate to catalogue music, but selcted ambient works are ambient works and not techno. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i didnt said that they are techno what im trying to say is that "ambient" doesnt mean "without beats " ( techno or whatever ) if only there is space , even provided only by beats - its ambient |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this is going to turn into a battle of opinions. I think Ambient to me is more of something that is like a soundscape, not necessarily beatless, just something more atmospheric. and yes i know lots of music can be atmospheric. this is a very tricky definition. you want the defintion of ambient? Ambient=SAWII On=NOT ambient (except for 28 mix) My fav Aphex ambient song? prolly stone in focus |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ok. now i've to go, see you next year and happy party to everybody. ciao \/\/. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
on (28 mix) is pure ambient :) cya |
||||||||
|
|

At the time, SAW85/92 was classified as ambient techno. |
||||||||
|

Matchsticks probably, though Tha and Stone in focus are good too. Rhubarb and Lichen are good too but I've just heard them too damn often. |
||||||||
|

STONE IN FOCUS. |

|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
stone in focus rules |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

Can't pick. The furthest I can narrow it down is Lichen Rhubarb Quino-phec Stone In Focus Blue Calx Definately one of those. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Cliffs Radiator Rhubarb Blue Calx Curtains Stone In Focus (The missing track on the CD version of SAW II) (Why the fuck didn't they just make this a 3 disc set? If Prince can get away with it why cant Richard?) By the way, does someone know the title to that track that has a picture that looks like a big rusty hole with spaghetti looking stuff around it? If I remember thats the longest track on the album. |
